Robert Mugabe met with a US envoy for the first time in years last week, and promptly called him an "idiot," Bloomberg reports. The Zimbabwean president went on to say that nothing came out of talks with Johnnie Carson during a conference in Libya. “I hope he was not speaking for Obama,” Mugabe told a state newspaper today. “You wouldn’t speak to an idiot of that nature. He thinks he could dictate to us what to do.” He said he told Carson "he was a shame, a great shame being an African-American.”

Some speculated the meeting could signal a thaw—or maybe not: “We have the whole of the Southern African Development Community working with us, and you have the likes of little fellows like Carson wanting to say ‘you do this, you do that,'” Mugabe ranted. He added that Zimbabwe would look East for help, noting that unlike Chinese assistance, Western aid is delivered “in a crooked way to serve their own political objectives."

Mugabe - His Actions, Unabashedly Par for HIS Course. I'm not being a racist when saying, Mugabe is an an absolute idiot AND asshole, too; the facts speak for themselves.

This man affirms that racism/bigotry isn't only about color its about the "negative category, one that defies definition because it lacks content. Race is not what a racist may say it is, it is simply whatever a racist thinks he or she is not." Robert Pollack
